Best Reusable Snack & Sandwich Bags for Kids

I don't think I need to convince anyone that reusable sandwich and snack bags are a win-win. Buying fewer plastic bags saves you money over time and is an earth-friendly gesture. I use them to take snacks to work and my son uses them for his preschool snacks and what we call "go snacks" (snacks for the car or the playground). I'm definitely stocking up before he goes off to kindergarten next month.

1. Big Apple Buddies by BuiltNY: five cute, modern animals adorn these new reusable bags with a spot for your child's name on the front. Velcro closure with "heat-sealing technology".

3. SugarBooger by O.R.E.: "snack sacks" sold in sets of three (2 sandwich size, 1 smaller snack size) to coordinate with their lunch boxes and food containers. Velcro tab closure on 2 and a zip close on the third, clear one.
